It works for me. I choose "export as PDF", give it a name, click save,
a PDF is born.

I just open a PDF in LO and it opens like any other supported file.

I wonder if you start lowriter from terminal if there will be any
useful messages output when you try to read/write a PDF.

Here are my USE flags in case it is of any help:

app-office/libreoffice-3.5.0.1  USE="binfilter branding dbus graphite
gstreamer gtk java jemalloc kde mysql nsplugin opengl pdfimport svg
vba webdav xmlsec (-aqua) -debug -eds -gnome -gtk3 -odk -postgres
-test" 0 kB
